Moving Parts, Damian Ortega
Jock Walker
Looking in the Frieze magazine issue 98 April 2006 pg 146-151 i came across an interesting intallation, video performance extreme artist Damian Ortega. Double page spread of a work of his called Cosmetic thing, which is a car , old volts wagon Beetle completely Dissenabled hanging from the looks like an instruction mannual showing the mechanic of the car but in 3d. Really like this work because of the simplicity of the idea but its still got a massive wow facter. Hanging a car in a gallery, the massive factory looking space its in works well. Other works explained video of towing people behind a vdub using rope and a greased floor, sounds fun.And a super 8 road movie of a beetle driving to its own funeral, lowered into a grave covered with earth until only the wheels were showing like squishy stones.
